VIEW FROM THE PRESS BOX (3): WEST BROM




This is the outlook from the broadcast gantry at The Hawthorns. The written media are directly below. The view is very good except that reporters are situated too close to one end of the ground. The media facilities at West Bromwich have undergone a massive revamp in the last year. A new press box and media suite have been constructed. They are very well appointed, although the punters who have been moved out of their usual seats to make way are not impressed.

Unfortunately the money seems to have run out when the building work ended. Albion could not even produce a cup of tea for perished scribes after Saturday's match with Bolton.

Star rating out of 5: 4

Surely it's bad enough watching West Brom, but not providing a brew is just a step too far.
